DETEOIT. 



The Market. 



Last week started out well, but to- 

 ward the end of the week things be- 

 come dull, causing stock, especially 

 mums, to pile up at the wholesale 

 houses. This is the first time this sea- 

 son that stock has been too plentiful. 



Monday of this week opened up well 

 and every indication pointed toward a 

 big Thanksgiving trade. Stock was 

 never of better quality, carnations and 

 roses being exceptionally fine. Violets 

 are good and selling readily, and many 

 fine sweet peas arrive at intervals and 

 are soon disposed of. 



Southern smilax is as popular as 

 ever. The first dogwood berries ap- 

 peared on the scene Monday, and ere 

 we realize it we will be selling poin- 

 settias, holly, mistletoe, etc., for Christ- 

 mas is less than four weeks away. 



Various Notes. 



A slick looking man walked into the 

 store of the Scribner Floral Co. Mon- 

 day morning and asked if he might 

 use the phone. Proprietor Robert 

 Jean said "help yourself," and the 

 stranger did to the tune of $22.25. He 

 pretended to be unsuccessful in getting 

 a number he called for on the phone 

 and then as soon as the opportunity 

 presented itself, emptied the cash 

 register. 



Chas. Plumb's houses abound in 

 blooming plants for Christmas, and 

 *soon the same plants will be seen scat- 

 tered about the different flower stores. 

 The begonias and poinsettias are 

 especially fine. 



B. Schroeter is showing some well 

 grown poinsettia plants in his window. 



Breitmeyer featured carnations at 

 40 cents per dozen last Saturday, this 

 being the day of their weekly sale. 



William Dilger, manager of the rose 

 and carnation show, requests publica- 

 tion of the following notice: "All 

 growers who intend to exhibit at the 

 show in Detroit January 10 to 12 

 are requested to mail copy to be used 

 on display banners 3x8 feet to William 

 Dilger, 40 Broadway, Detroit, at the 

 same time enclosing check for $10 to 

 cover cost of painting." H. S. 



Sedalia, Mo. — The Archias Floral Co. 

 has been making extensive improve- 

 ments in its Main street store, to facili- 

 tate the handling of stock from the 

 firm's greenhouses, at Fourth street 

 and Park .avenue.
